These Dreams
Remember that Heart song? “These dreams go on when I close my eyes...” Love that song. Anyway, I have a couple of interesting dreams to share with y’all.
The first one I find myself inside my office building, only it’s like right next to the beach. I can see the waves and everything. I’m standing there talking to some coworkers when the building starts to rock slowly back and forth. At first it feels a bit like an earthquake (highrises here are designed to sway and roll with the quakes), then it starts to get worse, like a boat in rough waters. Suddenly the building decides to break off its foundation and roll right into water. I’m magically still standing on the floor, but now the building is floating in the ocean. We all head for the exit and start swimming. While we’re swimming I notice a shadowy humanoid figure swimming powerfully in the water below us, only it has webbed hands and feet. In my mind it’s the Creature from the Black Lagoon. In the ocean. Maybe it’s his beach bum cousin from Malibu. He never surfaces though. Suddenly I’m on the shore already, but miles from where I’m supposed to be. The rest of the dream is just me walking and trying to find my way back.
The other dream is a bit more morbid. I’m sleeping in the same house as my sister (I’m not sure who’s house it is). When I wake up (still in the dream) I find my sister is injecting me with something. I have a sneaking suspicion it’s poison, but I do nothing. I eat breakfast but I start to feel a little woozy. I have a sneaking suspicion she may have poisoned my drink as well. And yet I drink it anyway. Now I’m feeling really weak. We go to my mom’s house, with me feeling weaker and weaker. I know I’m dying. I tell my mom I think my sister poisoned me because she wants to inherit the house. By this point it’s been more than half a day. If I was going to die from two sources of poisoning, I should have already. I still feel weak and faint, but as I make my way to the bathroom, I start feeling like maybe I can kick this poison’s ass. I have the constitution of an ox. Afterwards I plan on kicking my sister’s ass!
So there you go, two entirely different forms of dream-state wackiness. Think we can make movies out of ‘em?
